Sorry for the stupid question, but did you reset your MPG gauge? You really, even with spirited driving (unless you're literally sitting in traffic) shouldn't get less than 17/18mpg with those engines.

My '11 35i has about 17k miles and I get 11-15 mpg depending on traffic. I drive only in Chicago, with the occasional trip to Lakeside, MI in the summer. Over the summer on a hot day with the AC blowing and the window open, I was able to get 9.8 mpg pushing the car hard in Sport+ with the paddles. If I drove a Tahoe, I'd probably get 7 mpg.
